Earlier this month, Tom and I volunteered to chaperone the Middle School Band/Choir trip to Anaheim/Disneyland for their Heritage Festival competition. And we were so glad we did—I am not sure who had more fun, the kids or us! When we started out it was still dark—we had to be to school by 5:15 am. […]
Last week, I attended WPPI for my first time. In fact it was my first ever photography convention! Before that, I hadn’t been to Vegas in 25 years, so a lot has changed. It was FUN! My friend Alli and I met there. We stayed at the Bellagio (which is a gorgeous hotel!), and traipsed […]
So this year Emily and I decided to change it up a bit and do the Sacramento ClickinWalk instead of the San Francisco one like we did last year (mine, and Emily’s). We knew a couple of women who would be there already, and one in particular I was excited to meet (Kate!) as we’ve […]

My inlaws took our Emily to an intergenerational cooking camp in Napa a few weeks ago (which has been quite beneficial to me in more ways than one—while there she greatly expanded her cooking repertoire and has since made several dinners and desserts—I might just hand over the cooking! ;-)). That left Tom and I […]
Better late than never! Here is Emily’s blog post with her photos from our Disneyland trip over spring break. ******************************************************************************** Hey! It’s, well, me! Sorry it took so long! I hope you all like my pictures and their stories! OK, so here’s the first picture! Can you believe this was actually a part of our […]
The second half of our trip was fantastic with Daddy at our side! (And a typical view of me on the trip–behind the camera–LOL! Tom took this one…) And I just have to say, the World of Color was every bit as spectacular as I’d heard–we LOVED it! I was surprised though at how damp […]
